Looking great! I have been flying this baby ever since I got it! That is why I am kinda greedy with screenshots right now! I having a ball with this baby! It handles great especially at low level flight!

I did a fly by on a Water tower and pulled a Nasty barrel roll at about 586ft above the ground at well over 450 knots! It looked so sweet without crashing. the framerate was mad smooth!

This is going to be the test of my new machine when it comes, currently when flying the Tomcat i'd be lucky to get over 10fps (without even aproaching an airport). What sort frames were you getting mav? I see your system is pretty similar to my new one.

Sorry Swanny, Nice pics! My favorites are 3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9.

Was it just me or when flying it, it made FS feel a bit like LO:MAC?? (The Demo version - has anybody got LO:MAC here? DOn't here about it to often so I assume its a dud)

It is a frame rate muncher when yiou have clouds set to high detail and flying through a city. Its not the Viper, but the quality and detail is about 99% of it.

I withdraw my first comment, I tried it again and it ran extremely smooth............ Perhaps my computer was in a muddle..........

Hmm...  For some reason, I am not getting the afterburner effects.  

I've got to hand it to whoever did the flight model.  I took it up and the plane proceeded to teach me a lesson in humility I won't soon forget.  I also managed to get myself into a flat spin fromwhich I eventually recovered.  I've never flown a Tomcat, but this is what it must be like...

never check the FPS I will test it tonight and get back to you! It has to be fast because I get 0 lag when pulling high G manuevers like the barrel roll at very low altitudes (which really surprised me) After my fresh install of FS9 everything seems a lot smoother.

Guess it is because all the HIGH RES airports I had in the sim is gone now!

I will get back to you on that Birdman, sorry for the late reply, I have been busting my hump at work with this bad weather and the people in the city have been a little rowdy and then I have been Instructing Self Defense Class for about week. So I guess you see my point  :'(
